Video Game Music

Described simply, video game music is music which is featured in video games. This can encompass anything from the 8-bit tunes of early Nintendo games to the orchestral suites which back many of today's games. This tag can also be used to describe bands or artists who perform cover versions of songs from video games. Strictly speaking, licensed music that is featured in games (such as the soundtracks to many EA Sports games) could be considered video game music; but this is generally not considered accurate.
